Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Easy to purchase and understand and quite affordable for such a big trip that gave me peace of mind. I had to alter my dates after purchasing and they fixed it to my new dates at no additional cost.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Prime
Not being privy to revenue and claims data, it is impossible to assess whether the price paid is a fair trade. Arguably, no one seeks to make a claim on insurance, but if something were to go wrong, no doubt that one would rather reduce their losses. As I did not need to make a claim, I have no information to share regarding a claims experience.

I look for a high medical evacuation coverage at the lowest rate and this plan had $250,000 for about $45.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Universal Cruise
We had no problems on the trip and have no claims. It's hard to rate a plan that was not used, but I picked the plan as it seemed to provide the best range of coverage for a cruise.

Did not have to use it, so I really don't know how good it was; however, from the comments, it seems good. In addition, in comparing some of the other policies, they all seem essentially the same. I'm satisfied that I did not have to use it, but it was there if I needed it.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Choice Cruise
I purchased this insurance for a 28 day Transatlantic/Baltic cruise on Holland America cruise line. I purchased it about two weeks before the final cruise payment was due and paid the premium for the price of cruise. When I paid the final payment, the cruise line had dropped the final payment amount due. I contacted your representative about a reduction in the insurance coverage and was informed no adjustments are allowed only if the cruise cost went up would they make an adjustment. It seemed one sided. Then on the cruise, the first port of call was cancelled. The Captain felt the seas were too rough to safely dock the ship. In addition, on our return flight home to Ohio from Copenhagen Denmark we were experinced United's lack of customer respect when we landed in Chicago O'Hare. The flight from Copenhagen to Chicago was on-time and without problem. United continued to delay our connecting flight home and then we boarded the plane at 11:45 PM after almost three hours of delay. The pilot told us we had to get off the ground and waited on the tarmac until 1:20 AM the next day when the pilot announced he was out of time. We returned to terminal and had to wait at Customer Service to get rebooked on another flight at 7:42 AM. No food or hotel vouchers from United Airlines. When we got home we called to file a claim. It is just remarkable how much documentation the claim department required to process our missed port of call and airline delay. I don't understand why they need credit card statements showing you paid for your cruise if you have a final cruise document that shows zero balance and you have proof that you took the cruise by providing your final on-board statement. Nationwide did not pay the amount for miss port of call but a lower inconvenience benefit. Likewise, Nationwide did not pay the full amount for flight delay of more than 6 hours but only our actual out of pocket cost (coffee and scones) that we incurred at 5 AM when Starbucks opened. I would shop for other insurance providers next time as well as look at other companies than Insure my Trip for vacation protection coverage. It should not be burdensome to file a claim.
Stephen M. would not recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

    Thank you for your feedback. We received the following response from Nationwide:

    "As with other insurance, we do require proof of loss. While it may seem that we request an excess of documentation, the requested information all establishes the proof of loss. If we can establish the loss without all of the documentation submitted, we oftentimes forego requesting additional information. However, in cases where we do not receive all of the necessary information with the initial claim package and cannot make a claim determination, we will request additional information from the members. In this instance, the members were very good about providing the information necessary to process the claim and we were able to get their payments sent within 2 days of receipt."

    If you have any questions or concerns please contact us at 800-487-4722

Did not use, so can't review some items....I was satisfied with the cost of the plan I bought, but unknown if the coverage would have been good or not as not used.
